City will have seat on econ board

By TONY BRITT
tbritt@lakewiiyreporter.com
Columbia County officials want someone
from the City of Lake City to have a seat
on the county's Economic Development
Department board.
During Thursday night's county com-
mission meeting, county officials unani-

mously voted in favor of having a perma-
nent city representative serve on the EDD
board.
The EDD board is currently made up
of seven members, including two county
commissioners.
Marlin Feagle, county attorney, has
been asked to generate the appropriate
paperwork to add a representative from

the city.
Dale Williams, county manager, said
the EDD board will have to amend the
resolution setting the number of seats it
contains.
"As soon as all of the necessary paper-
work has been reviewed and approved by
the board, that offer will be extended to
the city," he said.

Williams said it's important to nvite a
city representative to serve on the board
because the city is the main local utility
provider and at every EDD board meeting
an issue concerning utilities arises. He
said it would be helpful to have someone
there who could speak to these issues.

The search for a new Columbia County
Economic Development Department
director continues and officials say they
will use a consulting firm to help fill the
post.
During Wednesday's
monthly EDD meeting
Dale Williams, county
manager, updated the eco-
nomic development board
on the search to fill the
post, emphasizing the
Williams need to have a consulting
firm act as a "third party"
to select the candidate everyone feels is
appropriate for the post. The proposal to
employ a consulting firm to aide in the
hiring process was made months ago and
officials believe the move will be benefi-
cial in the hiring process.
"The county has received 24 applica-
tions, they've been reviewed and we feel,
based on conversations with other areas
who are going through the same process

The Columbia CountyTourist Development
council wants to hire an engineer to devel-
op construction plans for enhancements at
Southside Sports Complex, and the group
also wants to convene a sports commission
as a contact point for all tournaments at the
facility.
The TDC held a special workshop at noon
Thursday at the County EOC
building to discuss setting
enhancement priorities at
Southside Sports Complex,
which will be made as rec-
ommendations to the county
commission.
The meeting lasted just
Campbell over an hour and TDC board
members discussed two lists
of priorities that were presented one con-
tained proposed improvements from a TDC
fact-finding committee and the other list con-
tained information from Clint Pittman, county
parks and recreation director, who was asked
to develop list of enhancements and a pro-
posed budget and to prioritize his list
TDC officials are considering increasing the
Local Option Tourist Development Tax by one
percent to pay for the proposed enhancements
at the facility. The tax is charged on anything
rented for less than six months. In the 2009-10
county budget, the tax generated $436,843. At

WASHINGTON The two-

NEW YORK
Mark-Paul Gosselaar is
keeping busy while
on hiatus from his
TNT "Franklin &
Bash" dramedy by
trekking across the East Coast on a
motorcycle ride for charity.
Kiehl's skin care company's six-
day LifeRide for amfAR raises money
for AIDS research. The former star
of "Saved by the Bell" is participat-
ing in the last three days of the ride
starting Thursday from Boston to
New York City.
For Gosselaar, an avid motorcy-
clist, the event was a no-brainer.
"Setting a good example for my
kids and leading by example is very
important to me," said the father of
two.
His love of motorcycles started
young with his older brother Mike,
a well-known motocross mechanic,
teaching him to ride at age 3. Mark-
Paul was competing in motocross
races by the time he was 5.
The actor said in a Tuesday phone
interview that he's passed the pas-
sion onto his children, Michael
Charles, 7, and Ava Lorenn, 5.
"My son was riding by the time he
was five," said Gosselaar. "I have pic-
tures of me with him in a BabyBjorn,
and I'm on my motorcycle, and that's
the way that he would go to sleep.
I'd ride around on my property at
five miles an hour, but it was the
noise and the wind that would put
him to sleep."
Gosselaar is best-known for play-
ing the precocious, bleach blond
high schooler Zack Morris in the
teen comedy "Saved by the Bell." It
aired from 1989 to 1993.

Commissioner Ron
Williams agreed with Dale
Williams' assessment and
spoke of the importance
of adding a city represen-
tative to the board.
"I think it's absolutely
critical to have a repre-
sentative from the city sit
on the board because they

own the utilities," Ron
Williams said. "Someone
from the city has got to be
there when this group is
dealing with a client."
Commissioner Rusty
DePratter, who chairs the
EDD board, said he has no
issues with the city having
a seat on the board, but

suggested the represen-
tative be a city council
member.
Commissioner Stephen
Bailey added that whoev-
er the city selects needs
to be someone capable
of attending all the meet-
ings.

the end of the 2010 fiscal
year the tax was increased
by one percent and offi-
cials anticipated collecting
$565,000. Of that, $472,000
is in the TDC budget and
$93,000 was appropriated to
the county's general budget
for maintenance of recre-
ational fields at Southside
Sports Complex. One per-
cent is expected to gener-
ate approximately $180,000
more.
Pittman's documents said
the top priorities should be
ADA sidewalks and pads
which would equate to
$25,000 worth of enhance-
ments at the adult softball
complex and $72,000 worth
of improvements at the
baseball fields.
Shade structures (safety

netting) for the bleaches,
Adult softball complex
- $125,000; Girls' softball
complex $250,000 and
baseball fields $375,000.
Pittman's list of top prior-
ities totaled $847,000. The
priorities came from a list-
ing of enhancements which
totaled $3,253,758.
Officials have not devel-
oped a timetable for mak-
ing the enhancements at
the facility but most agreed
that the work should be
done in phases rather than
all at once.
"I don't think it's practi-
cal to take the whole list
on at once," said Harvey
Campbell, ColumbiaCounty
Tourist Development
Council director.
The' TDC wants to cre-

process, that we owe it to ourselves
to seek assistance from a third party,"
Williams said. "We've already gotten
board approval to move in that direc-
tion, and therefore we're going to start
that process."
The county has been without an eco-
nomic development director since Jim
Poole's resignation became effective
nearly two months ago.
No timeframe has been established as
for when someone will be hired to fill the
position. : ": : "
"As I stated to the economic devel-
opment board, there are lot of.,,good
resumes and a lot of good applications,
and this in no way a reflection of those,
but now we've got to find the one that
best fits all needs," Williams said.
He said the ideal scenario would be to
offer the position to the candidate who
best meets the collective requirements
of the county manager, board of county
commissioners and the economic devel-
opment board.
"I want to make sure in this third party

ate a sports commission,
which will be tasked with
handling events and func-
tions at the facility. County
CommissionerJodyDuPree
has agreed serve as the
commission chairman.
The TDC plans to send
the recommendation about
hiring an engineer and
forming a sports commis-
sion to the county commis-
sion to be ratified.
"This is a good project
for the community," said
Nick Patel, TDC. member,
-noting how the slow econo-
my has impacted him. "We
have to do something to
create demand in our own
community. This is a major
sports industry. The ben-
efits are immense. I hope
this is a shared project

process that what they see and envision
as being a desirable candidate is con-
sidered also," Williams said.
The county has established a $18,500
budget for hiring and retaining the con-
sulting firm.

richest 20 percent of Americans account
for about 40 percent of consumer spend-
ing. says Michael Niemira, chief economist
at the International Council of Shopping
Centers.
The drop in stocks "will have repercus-
sions back on the economy," says Barry
Bosworth, an economist at the Brookings
Institution who has studied the link
between stock market performance and
consumer spending.
All this comes just as fears of another
recession are rising. Many consumers,
their wages devoured by high gasoline
and food prices, are pinching pennies: In
June, they reduced spending for the first
time in 20 months, the government said
this week.
Cato Corp., which sells budget-priced
women's clothing, said Thursday that
revenue at stores open at least a year fell
3 percent in July. CEO John Cato said
the results "reflect the difficult economic
conditions and uncertainty affecting our
customers."
Luxury retailers like Tiffany & Co.
and Saks Fifth Avenue have remained a
bastion of strength. They benefited from
a stock rally that started a year ago and
made wealthy households even wealth-
ier and willing to spend. MasterCard
Advisors SpendingPulse says its index
of luxury sales at restaurants, food bou-
tiques, department stores and clothiers,
surged 12 percent last month.
But the Dow's plunge could now
threaten upscale retailers. The econo-
my, Niemira notes, is "more dependent
on spending at the high end so (a drop
in luxury sales) could have a bigger
effect.
But James Rushing, a vice president
in the retail practice at the consultancy
A.T. Kearney, expects high-end shoppers
to keep spending. True, they slashed
spending during the financial crisis a
couple of years ago. But he says they've
grown used to bad economic news and
are unfazed by the stock market's short-
term gyrations.
"The question is, how long of a funk
do you have to have before those higher-
end consumers" scale back spending?
says Doug Hart, a partner in the retail
practice of BDO USA.
The stock market still has plenty to
worry about.
Cracks in the European financial
system widefied further Thursday
as investors worried that Italy and
Spain would be unable to pay their
debts. Regulators have put banks there
through a series of stress tests. The
tests are designed to show whether the

banks could withstand defaults by their
weaker neighbors.
Fears of default by smaller, heavily
indebted countries such as Greece and
Portugal have been replaced by con-
cerns about large Italian and Spanish
banks. Some investors also worry that
the banks are carrying too much of their
home nations' debt and that the banks
aren't reporting the true value of .those
bonds.
Investors fear that the European
Union's bailout fund, set up last year to
assist indebted countries like Greece,
might not be big enough to aid all of the
countries facing such problems.
Traders are losing faith in the credit-
worthiness of debt issued by a growing
number of countries and in the banks
that hold it. That's .causing banks to
charge each other more money for
overnight borrowing. It's also making
short-term credit harder to get, trad-
ers say.
One sign of jitters: The yield on the
one-month Treasury bill fell into nega-
tive territory on Thursday. That meat
that lenders would, in effect, pay the U.S.
government to hold their cash. Market
participants said the falling Treasury
yields show that investors still regard
U.S. debt as the safest place for their
money.
There are other ways that Europe's
problems could be felt across the
Atlantic. European banks that can't get
credit might stop lending to U.S. banks
and hoard their money. U.S. banks' bor-
rowing costs would rise.
A default by a major European bank
would likely have similar effects, poten-
tially sparking a credit crisis like the one
caused when Lehman Brothers collapsed
in September 2008.
"It's one of those unknowns that's big
enough and scary enough to drag down
the (U.S.) markets," said Kurt Karl, chief
U.S. economist at Swiss Re.
Europe is also an important market for
U.S. goods. Companies in the Standard
& Poor's 500 stock index earnabout 20
percent of their profits in Europe, accord-
ing to Bank of America.
Investors have turned their attention
this week to. a string of data that shows
the economy is much weaker than they
thought, said Tom Porcelli, an economist
at RBC Capital Markets.
"The recovery is going to be long and
drawn out and is going to be more painful
than many people appreciated," he said.

ussian Prime
Minister Vladimir
Putin flew off on a
visit to a youth sum-
mer camp, where
he devolved to the no-doubt-
puzzled campers this thought
about the United States: "They
,are living like parasites off
the global economy and their
monopoly of the dollar."
Ifwe're parasites,we'reprettygood

Russiais eighth below Itay adjust

China, the world's second-
largest economy, seems to
'manufacture just about every-
thing, including stuff it shouldn't
because some of its manufactur-
ers are notorious counterfeiters of
Western goods.
Now, according to The Wall
Street Journal, the Chinese are
counterfeiting not only the goods
but also entire stores.
In the city ofKunming, foreign
blogger found a fake Apple store,
right down to the details of the real
outlets. In a novel twist on counter-
feiting, the store was selling, with-
outApple's permission, real Apple
products like iPads and iPhones.
Dairy Queen has a big imita-
tor in China, down to the menus,
cups and employee uniforms. The
knockoff store did have the grace
to call itself Dairy Fairy.
U.S. smoothie chain Jamba
Juice,with no outlets in China,
does, however, have an imita-
tor, Jambo Juice. The Chinese ...
proprietors told the Journal that
the similarity in name, decor and
offerings is pure coincidence.
The sandwich chain Subway has
a copycat competitor, so faithful in
its details, according to the Journal,
That it offers sandwiches in 6-and
12-nch lengths even though China
uses the metric system.
Imitation may be the sincerest
'form of flattery, but the foreign
firms would probably rather forgo
,the flattery in favor of royalties
and licensing fees.
And as for Putin, if he worries
less about the United States and
more about his own country's

maybe one day Russia, too,
will come up with products the
Chinese think worthy of counter-
feiting.

Politics vs. common sense

Just when you think
Congress has shown a smidgen
of responsibility by deciding it
would be bad for the nation to
default on its debt obligations,
the same people who brought
you weeks of indigestion over
that issue have let politics once
again take precedence over
common sense.
Before heading out the door
for the August recess, the good
solons of the Upper Chamber
refused to take action to end a
stalemate that has the Federal
Aviation Administration reeling
from lack of money. The upshot
of that disgrace will be at least
,another month andImaybe
longer' of 4,000 FAA employee
layoffs, some 70,000 idled sub-
contract workers and 40 safety
inspectors who are being asked
of all things to stay on and fund
their own jobs including travel.
Here's an idea. Perhaps the
members of Congress should.
give up their pay for a month.
All of this is has been the
result of Democrats who believe
Republicans are trying to under-
cut unions and Republicans
who see the subsidization of
rural airports as a waste of
money and have decided to use
these lives as shuttlecocks in
a political badminton contest
Secretary of Transportation
Ray LaHood has assured those
who fly that the whole mess will
not impact their safety. That, of
course, is good news, but might
not be all that accurate if one
considers that runways over-
seen by the now hard-pressed
inspectors are important to
safety. Air traffic controllers,
who are funded differently, will
stay on the job.
Those furloughed are only
the tips of that iceberg. The lack
of funds has a ripple effect shut-

ting down construction projects
at 200 airports around the
nation. In addition, the loss of
ticket revenue from this debacle
is expected to be a cool $1 bil-
lion when every penny is need-
ed to offset the debt. Cutting
off the rural subsidy would save
$16 million while not acting is
costing $30 million a day. That's
hardly a fair trade.
Who's to blame? Pick your
huckleberry. When temporary
financing for the FAA expired
last month halting the collec-
tion of taxes on airline tickets,
the House passed another
stop-gap bill to extend funding
to mid September and con-
tinue the taxation to finance
most of the agency's expenses.
But that temporary legisla-
tion included shutting off the
subsidy for 16 rural airports,
some in the states of prominent
Senate Democrats like Sen.
Max Baucus of Montana and
Majority Leader Harry Reid
of Nevada. Enter Sen. John D.
Rockefeller IV of West Virginia,
chairman of the committee
that oversees the FAA, who
demanded that the spending
bill not include the provision on
rural airports or anything else
- a clean bill as it were.
Republicans contend the
rural passenger subsidization -
is wasteful. The Democrats
charge the rural airport issue
is being used as diversion from
GOP efforts to disallow a new

regulation that would make, it
easier for unions to organize
airlines. The National Mediation
Board adopted the regulation
that union certification could
come about through a majority
of those voting and not a major-'
ity of all employees as had been
the case. A bill passed by the
Republican House reauthorizing
FAA operations would change
the new regulation by counting
those not voting as 'no' votes.
There seems little ques-
tion that the House under
the direction of Republican
Transportation committee chair-
man John Mica included the
Ely, Nev., and Montana airport
in a sophomoric effort to stick it
to Reid and Baucus. At the same
time, there is no doubt that the
mediation board's new regula-
tion benefits organized labor
mostly allied with Democrats.
Got the picture? ,
What we have at the expense
of all those employees and ,
subcontractors of FAA and the
potential threat to the public
safety is one of those increas-
ingly frequent partisan donny-
brooks in this divided govern-
ment These-are separate issues
that should have been treated
that way.
So before you get all.warm
and fuzzy about the prospects
of a newly responsible, grown-
up Congress, don't be fooled. If
you're flying and wonder about
all that parked equipment on
half finished projects at the local
airport, you will realize how
fragile that detente really is.
Then probably you should think
what the next 16 months until
election are going to be like and
consider moving to Australia.

Debt deal: At least it's a start

it's a pittance, but
$3 trillion in budget
cuts just could be an
important first step in'
doing something real about our
ruinous debt
The debt itself, of course,
could lead to a default, but for
now we've avoided one by rais-
ing the debt ceiling in this deal
between House Republicans and
Senate Democrats and, yes, with
President Barack Obama. His
ineptitude had sidelined him in
negotiations, but he still had to
sign on to these trillions in spend-
ing cuts that constitute a final
trashing of his original, absolutely
absurd 2012 budget proposal.
Let's consider that one of the
single most important things
a president does each year
is devise a budget signifying
his economic plans, priorities,
endorsements, rejections and
hopes. Figuring out what to
do is a major year-round, long-
hours, sweat-and-tears task that
must not be shirked..
Consider next that the Obama
budget was, to use a word he
recently employed, "dysfunctional"
- a $3.73 trillion document blithely
ignoring his own debt commis-
sion's warnings that we needed
revenue-raising tax reforms along

Jay Ambrose

with steep entitlement cutbacks
and other reductions. The presi-
dent did zilch, zero, nada about
either kind of reform. Although
he did announce some freezes
in areas already fattened by past
increases, he made up for that
austerity charade with new spend-
ing in education and energy and,
to give us a more European look,
on heavily subsidized high-speed
trains.
While unbelievably sly about
it, the president did count on
tax hikes in the years to come -
- $1.6 trillion worth. At the same
time, he and his gang were still
projecting a 2012 deficit of $1.1
trillion and enough additional
deficits over the coming decade
to add $10 trillion to a $14 tril-
lion debt If you do the arithme-
tic, the sum comes to goodbye
to the America we've known.
Niall Ferguson, a Harvard
history and business professor,

has written that if lenders think
we're a "safe haven" now, we're
safe like Pearl Harbor was in
1941. Interest rates could scoot
skywards, meaning growth
would hardly budge at all. He
also says a decline in power is
likely in the offing, seeing as
how interest payments on bor-
rowed money will leave little left
over for the armed forces.
But look, was the debt-ceiling
fight and the last-minute com-
promise worth all the hassle?
Yes, because first off, the fight
caused Obama to retreat from
his loco budget to the extent
that the Senate voted 97-0 not
even to consider it
The compromise leaves the
door open for obnoxious maneu-
vers, and the $3 trillion cut
would still give us a debt hike
of $7 trillion in 10 years. But
$3 trillion is still much moola,
and there's life after this deal.
Republicans can keep seeking
other ways to effect cuts, espe-
cially should they take over the
Senate and the presidency in
the 2012 election.

Uncage

Mubarak,

give him

a fair trial

In his 29-year rule of
Egypt, Hosni Mubarak
has accumulated much to
answer for corruption,
torture, oppression and
little to show in the way of prog-
ress for the average Egyptians.
This week in a Cairo court-
room his trial began on the
first of the charges, a curious
pairing of ordering the police
to deliberately gun down
peaceful protesters with his
sons being part of a crooked
land deal. The murder charg-
es there are more to come
could net him the death
penalty.
But the circumstances of
the trial are dispiriting and
offer little in the way of hope
that Egypt's next government
will be better than the last.
Mubarak is 83 and believed
to be seriously ill with cancer.
The former president, his
hospital bed, two sons and
fellow defendants are penned
up in a specially constructed
steel bar and wire-mesh cage
in the courtroom.
It is said that these cages
are a regular fixture in trials
in this part of the world. They
shouldn't be. The fact that
the Russian courts use them
should be reason enough to
dispense with the practice.
Court officials cite secu-
rity concerns but the ailing
Mubarak, with perhaps the
most recognizable face in
Egypt, is hardly a flight risk.
The sole purpose of the cage,
it seems, is humiliation. And
his prosecutors wanted the
Egyptian public to see him
in those circumstances in his
first public appearance since
a TV broadcast in February
when he was still in power.
The Associated Press cites
another reason for accord-
ing Mubarak the dignified
treatment and legal protec-
tions of a normal courtroom.
Humiliating Mubarak sends
a message to other dictators
fighting to hang on in Libya,
Syria and Lebanon: "Don't
lose."
Insuring that Mubarak
and his cronies get a fair and
humane trial is an important
step toward restoring the rule
of law in Egypt. Exhibiting
Mubarak like an aging animal
is hardly a promising start in
that direction.

NEW YORK Gripped
by fear of another reces-

fered its worst day Thursday
since the financial crisis in
the fall of 2008. The Dow
Jones industrial average fell
more than 500 points, its
ninth-steepest decline.
The sell-off wiped out the
Dow's gains for 2011. It put
the Dow and broader stock
indexes into what investors
call a correction down 10
percent from their highs in
the spring.
"We are continuing to
be bombarded by worries
about the global economy,"
said Bill Stone, the chief

Across the financial mar-

defined the financial crisis
in September and October
three years ago. Gold prices
briefly hit a record high. Oil
fell even more than stocks
- 6 percent, or $5.30 a bar-

concern in Europe that the
troubled economies of Italy
and Spain might need help
from the European Union.
The European Union
has already given financial
assistance to Greece and

might be more than the

Then one report after
another began to show that
the economy was much
weaker than first thought
Manufacturing is barely
growing. The service sec-
tor, which covers about 90
percent of the American
work force, is growing at
the slowest rate in a yeas
and a half. People spent less
in June than in May, the first
decline since September
2009.
And the overall economy
is expanding at the slowest
pace since the end of the
Great Recession. It grew
at an annual rate of just
0.8 percent for the first six

months of this year, raising
the risk of another reces-
sion.
In an indication of how
frightened investors are,
Bank of New York Mellon
said it would start charg-
ing large investors to hold
their cash because they are
depositing so much. The
bank's clients include pen-
sion funds and large invest-
ment houses that are selling
stock and need to deposit
the proceeds.
Mark Luschini, chief
investment strategist for
Janney Montgomery Scott,
an investment firm in
Philadelphia, said his cli-
ents saw the move from

stocks into cash as "a park-
ing lot to sort things out"
"With the scars of 2008
still fresh," he said, "some
clients don't want to miss
the chance to pre-empt
further damage should it
come."
Wells Fargo Advisers,
a financial management
company in St. Louis,
said clients were more
nervous.
"I wouldn't say they're
totally panicking. But obvi-
ously nerves' are rattled,"
said Scott Marcouiller, chief
technical market strategist
there. "And I think that is
simply because of the speed
of the decline."

Lawmakers: Morgan should discuss hacking"

BY RAPHAEL G. SATTER
Associated Press

SLONDON CNN's
celebrity interviewer Piers
Morgan faced calls Thursday
to return to Britain to explain
what he knows about the
country's phone hacking
scandal, although the 46-
year-old star didn't seem in
)ny hurry to go home.
The heat was turned up
up Morgan when Heather
Mills, the ex-wife of Paul
iMcCartney, accused news-
paper group Trinity Mirror
PLC of accessing her voice-
mail messages. Morgan
'dited the company's flag-
ship Daily Mirror newspaper
between 1995 and 2004.
. Some lawmakers have
sliled on Morgan to return
to Britain to answer ques-
tions about the scandal, but
lis spokesman, Meghan
McPartland, said he had no
immediate plans to leave for
gritain.
I On his Twitter feed,
lIorgan made light of the
.situation, saying he found
i' "so heartwarming that
everyone in U.K's missing

me so much they want me to
come home." .
Mills' allegation, made
Wednesday in an interview
with the BBC, centers on
a phone call she said she
received from a seniorTrinity
Mirror journalist in 2001,
before she and McCartney
were married.
In the call, the journalist
referred to relationship prob-
lems she was having with the
former Beatle. When Mills
asked how he knew, she
said the journalist quoted a
voicemail left by McCartney
on her phone word-for-word.
She said that when she then
accused him of breaking into
her phone and threatened to
call the police, he admitted
it and promised not to run a
story on the couple's fight
Mills identified the jour-
nalist, although the BBC
bleeped out the name, citing
legal reasons. The BBC did
say that the journalist was
not Morgan. ASSOCIATED PRESS

D.B. Cooper ghosts abound, says FBI

By MIKE BAKER
Associated Press

OLYMPIA, Wash. One suspect made
a deathbed confession that he was the
never-captured skyjacker D.B. Cooper.
Another was a fugitive at the time of the
hijacking. Still another was an airline work-
er and former paratrooper.
Each had a face that closely resembled
Cooper's. None were him.
For nearly 40 years, the FBI has chased
the ghost of the man responsible for the
nation's only unsolved hijacking, with each
exhausted lead growing his stature in
American folklore.
The latest example to pique public fascina-
tion and FBI interest is an Oklahoma
woman who claims her uncle was the man
who parachuted out of a plane in 1971
with a $200,000 ransom. Piecing together
memories from when she was 8 years old
and comments her parents made in recent
years, Marla Cooper said she is certain that
the legendary D.B. Cooper is actually Lynn
Doyle Cooper.
She said her uncle arrived at the family
home in Oregon, bloodied and bruised, short-
ly after the hijacking of the Northwest Orient
airliner. She said she overheard her uncles
talking about having hijacked a plane.
The FBI agent assigned to the case before
his retirement in 1980 is skeptical. Ralph
Himmelsbach is no longer involved in any
part of the Cooper investigation but recalled
chasing hundreds of potential suspects over
the years.
'To date, none of them has panned out,"
he said.
"We still do not know who is, or was, or
where he came from, or where he went," he
said. "This is still a mystery."
What investigators do know is that on
Nov. 24, 1971, a man in his mid-40s and wear-
ing dark sunglasses boarded a Boeing 727 at
Portland International Airport With a ticket
under the name Dan Cooper, he took seat
18F, ordered a bourbon and water.
Then he handed a flight attendant a note:
"Miss, I've got a bomb, come sit next to me
- you're being hijacked."
Cooper (a law enforcement official later
erroneously referred to him as "D.B." and the
initials stuck) opened a briefcase that appeared
to contain explosives and demanded $200,000
and parachutes. Officials met his demands
when the plane landed at Seattle-Tacoma
International Airport, where passengers and
two flight attendants were released.
The man in 18F then ordered the flight crew
to take the plane backinto the air, insisting that
it fly at an altitude of no more than 10,000 feet
on its way to Mexico through Reno, Nevada.
About 40 minutes after takeoff, a signal
light in the cockpit showed that the plane's
rear stairway had been extended. When the
jet landed in Reno, the stairs were down and
two parachutes, the money and Cooper were
gone.
Himmelsbach has long theorized that
Cooper didn't survive the jump into the frigid
air and rugged terrain around the Washington-

Oregon border. A child digging in a sand bar
on the north bank of the Columbia River west
of Vancouver found a bundle of $20 bills in
1980 that had serial numbers matching some
of the ransom money.
There's been no other sign of where Cooper
went
The latest tip is just one of several that the
FBI considers an active lead. Ifs also the lat-
est in a long line of leads that seemed to hold
promise for investigators.
There was John list, a fugitive accused of
killing his family in New Jersey days before
the hijacking.
There was Duane Weber, who had served
prison time near Seattle and told his wife in a
1995 deathbed confession that he was Cooper.
There was Kenneth Christiansan, a former
paratrooper and an employee of the airline
operating the hijacked plane.
There have been bold claims and copycats
but still no sign of the real D.B. Cooper.
A few years ago, the FBI renewed its psh to
solve the case, releasing photos and new case
details in the hopes of jogging memories or
prompting someone to come forward. Seattle-
based FBI case agent Larry Carr provided at
the time a comment that could turn out to be
prophetic.
'"Maybe a hydrologist- can use the latest
technology to trace the $5,800 in ransom
money found in 1980 to where Cooper landed
upstream," Carr said. "Or maybe someone just
remembers that odd uncle."

Marla Cooper said she never gave much
thought to what she saw in 1971 until comments
from her father before his death in 1995 and
her mother two years ago. She then looked
up the story of D.B. Cooper and was flooded
with the memories of what happened.
She said her uncle died in 1999.
Investigators do have fingerprints from an
in-flight magazine and DNA from the black
tie that Cooper wore before he jumped.
Recently, they tested a guitar strap previ-
ously owned by the new Cooper suspect
but found it wasn't suitable for fingerprint
analysis.
Officials are now working with family
members to gather other items on which
Cooper may have left prints but they caution
that the latest is just one of several leads
and remains a low priority amid other FBI
duties.
Over the years, Cooper's disappearance
has spawned an entire subculture of amateur
sleuths, conspiracy theories and celebra-
tions.
In a new book to be released next
week, Geoff Gray documents the quests of
people who have devoted their entire lives
to unmasking Cooper's identity. Gray'said
Cooper draws so much interest because
he quickly emerged as a sort of Robin
Hood-type figure who was willing to com-
mit the most dramatic of crimes.
"By falling out of that plane either to
his death or his life he shifted the moral
landscape of the country for that moment,"
Gray said. "He makes the good guys root
for the bad guys."

the answerphone."
In a statement released
Wednesday, Morgan
described Mills' allegation as
unsubstantiated and noted
that the judge in the couple's
divorce case had cast asper-
sions on her credibility.
He has repeatedly denied
having ever ordered anyone
to spy on others' voicemails.
Mills office on Thursday
declined to elaborate on
what she told the BBC, but
said that the 43-year-old
"looks forward to receiving
Piers Morgan's answer as to
how he knew the content of
her private voicemail mes-
sages."
Labour Party deputy
leader Harriet Harman also
said Morgan had questions
to answer over the extent
of phone hacking within
Britain's media industry. The
scandal exploded at Rupert
Murdoch's News of the
World which the media
tycoon has since shut but
lately titles published by the
Trinity Mirror have come
under scrutiny as well.
Harman said that "the
public rightly expects that
we will get to the bottom of

phone hacking. That's why
it is so important that the
police investigation looks at
all the evidence and leaves
no stone unturned."
John Whittingdale, chair-
man of Parliament's Culture,
Media and Sport commit-
tee, which has examined
Britain's phone-hacking
scandal, said Morgan should
return to the U.K to answer
questions although not
from his panel of lawmak-
ers, which famously grilled
Rupert Murdoch and his son
James last month. .
He said the panel's remit
is focused only on allega-
tions against the News of
the World, but that a police
inquiry into hacking may

be interested to hear from
Morgan. "Certainly if
there is evidence implicat-
ing other newspapers then
that needs to be part of that
investigation," Whittingdale
told Sky News.
Conservative legislator
Therese Coffey, a member
of Whittingdale's commit-
tee, also urged Morgan to
return. "I think it would
help everybody, including
himself and this investiga-
tion, if he was able to say
more about why-he wrote
what he did in 2006," she
told the BBC's Newsnight
program on Wednesday.

Lawless contributed to this

DEAR ABBY: Like
other people my age, I'm
supposed to get a colonos-
copy. The difficulty is that
someone has to go to the
two-hour appointment with
me, as well as supervise
me for 3 to 4 hours after-
ward until the anesthesia
wears off.
I don't have family here,
and my friends all work
full time, so I hesitate to -
ask them. Can I hire a
home health aide to go
along with me? Is there
a volunteer organization
that provides compan-
ions? Could I stay in the
recovery room for several
hours and then take a taxi
or drive myself home?
The lack of a person to
accompany me is the
major reason I haven't
gotten the procedure
yet I know I must not be
the only person in this
boat What do you sug-
gest? ON MY OWN IN
BLOOMINGTON, IND.
DEAR ON YOUR OWN:
You're definitely not the
only person who has faced
this problem, which is why
I'm printing your letter.
Do you belong to a
church? If so, contact your
clergyperson and ask if
he or she knows someone
in your congregation who
would be willing to accom-
pany you for the proce-
dure, drive you. home and
stay for a few hours. If not,
because you live in a uni-
versity town, contact the
school and ask if one of

ARIES (March 21-April
19): The more you accom-
plish, the better you. will

disagreement is a waste of
time. Make changes that

moving. Love is on the
rise, and socializing is a
must***
TAURUS (April 20-May
20): You have good ideas,
but don't go overboard or
you will miss your goal.
Too much of anything will
work against you today.
Accepting change is the
quickest way to move for-
ward. A mini vacation will
help put things in perspec-
tive. ***
GEMINI (May 21-June
20): A good suggestion
can cut your work in half.
Concentrate on what needs
to be done and move
quickly so you can get
on with more pleasurable
activities. A money deal
will entice you. Romance is
highlighted. *****
CANCER (June 21-July
22): Examine your options
carefully. You can handle
more than you think if you
are clever in the way you
present your skills. Listen
attentively, and you will
benefit from the knowl-
edge you pick up. **
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):
Keep your plans simple
and cost-efficient Going

demise. Stick cloe-to
home and spruce up your
surroundings; you will get
something back on your
investment A commit-
ment must be honored. A
personal change will boost
your ego. ****
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept
22): Look at your options
before you make a deci-
sion. Invitations must be
weighed carefully. Focus
on whatever event or activ-
ity will bring you the most
knowledge and the least
expense.****
. LIBRA (Sept 23-Oct
22): Physical hands-on
help is required. Your dedi-
cation and hard work will
impress someone who will
use what you have to offer
for a handsome return.
Love is in the stars, and a
commitment can be made.
A change of personal plans
will lead to something bet-
ter. ***
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov.
21): Take a backseat and
let things unfold. Watching
for the perfect moment to
jump in and do your thing
will lead to being a hero.
Meddling must be avoided
to keep the peace with
someone you love. Focus
on yourself and creative

home improvement proj-
ects. ***
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
22-Dec. 21); A money mat-
ter can be put to rest Your
ability to wheel and deal
will help you come out on
top. Settlements, winnings
and financial investments
are possible. Expect delays
and confusion while travel-
ing.***
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
Jan. 19): You have to be
smart about the way you
handle personal money
matters and the people try-
ing to get something from
you for nothing. Don't give
in to pressure when it's
you who should be doing
the pushing. ****
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-
Feb. 18): Don't let your
emotions get in the way of
what's important Treat the
ones you love with respect
and avoid getting upset
over trivial matters. Make
personal changes that will
ensure you don't make the
same mistakes again. **
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20): Private information
will be revealed. Be careful
how you handle others and
what you share. You can
make positive gains if you
put your heart into some-
thing you feel passionate
about Good fortune will
come to you if you aren't
too pushy. *****

HGH test added to NFL CBA SPORTS: Forms must be finished

By HOWARD FENDRICH
Associated Press
WASHINGTON NFL
players ratified a new, 10-year
collective bargaining agree-
ment Thursday, hours after it
was finalized, and two people
familiar with the negotiations
told The Associated Press the
contract allows the NFL to
become the first major U.S.
professional sports league to
use blood testing for human
growth hormone.
The NFL eventually can test
each player annually for HGH,
but only after the union is con-
fident in the way the testing
and appeals process will work,
the people said. They spoke
on condition of anonymity
because no formal announce-
'ment had been made about
the drug-testing policy.
The aim is to have every-
thing worked out in time to
start HGH testing by Week 1
of the regular season, but that
is not guaranteed.

"We have to see if we agree
with the test," Jacksonville
Jaguars cornerback Rashean
Mathis said. "If we agree with
the test, then it's legit If not,
they have to come up with
another one."
Most of the deal to end the
NFL's 4 1/2-month lockout
was agreed to last month, but
certain elements still need-
ed to be ironed out after the
NFL Players Association re-
established itself as a union.
The union which dissolved
itself in March, when the old
CBA expired, allowing players
to sue the league in federal
court was again formed by
last weekend. Final CBA lan-
guage was in place Thursday
afternoon in talks between the
sides' lawyers in Washington.
Before 5 p.m. EDT, play-
ers voted to approve the final
agreement That allowed play-
ers who signed contracts July
,26-jyr after and had been
forced to sit out practices by
NFL rules to finally join

teammates in drills Thursday,
as the new "league year" offi-
cially began.
Among the other CBA ele-
ments that were settled this
week: parameters for penal-
ties associated with on-field
discipline and new disability
program guidelines. Under a
new neuro-cognitive disability
benefit, for example, players
do not have to prove that their
mental disability was related
to playing football.
For on-field offenses -
which grabbed headlines last
season when the league made
a point of enforcing existing
rules about illegal hits more
strictly the NFLPA must be
consulted before a player is
suspended or fined more than
$50,000.
And players now will be
able to argue on appeal that a
fine is excessive if it exceeds
25 percent of one week's pay
for a first.offense or 50 per-
cent of a week's pay for a
second offense.

SANDERS: Primetime headed to Canton
Continued From Page 1B

entertain," said Eugene
Parker, Sanders' agent and
close friend who will pres-
ent him for induction. "He
always used to say, 'I de-
what I love and I love what
I do.' He wanted to express
that exuberance for what
he was doing."
The firsttime he returned
a punt in the NFL, he took
it 68 yards for a touch-
down. He would score 22
touchdowns five different
ways 19 on defense and
special teams, the most in
NFL history. He returned
two interceptions at least
90 yards for touchdowns
in a single season, another
first. He made the NFL's all-
decade team in the 1990s
as both a cornerback and a
punt returned.
But those are just lines
on a resume. They don't

do justice to what kind of
threat he was during his
peak years. That was best
evidenced by the feeling
fans, foes and even team-
mates had every time a ball
headed his way; everyone
held their breath to see
what he would do with it.
Sanders had the speed
and moves to weave his
way through traffic, into the
open field. And that's where
the real show began.
What previous genera-
tions considered taunting
a beaten foe, Sanders con-
sidered performance art
Putting a ball behind his
head or strutting or tak-
ing scissor-steps, he was
always looking for fun ways
to showcase himself. He
wanted to be more than a
great player, to be .some-
one who all by himself was

worth the price of admis-
sion. Love himor hate him,
he often was.
"Deion did it all," Parker
said. "He would dream the
impossible dream and then
go out and make it happen.
He wasn't going to be lim-
ited or defined by someone
.else's views." ,,
After establishing him-
self as an All-Pro with the
Atlanta Falcons. Sanders
wanted to show he was
more than a great player
on a mediocre team. SA he
went to the San Francisco
49ers to help them try end-
ing Dallas' two-year reign
as Super Bowl champs. He
was voted the NFL's top
defensive player of that
season. The 49ers indeed
won it all, knocking -off
the Cowboys in a classic
NFC championship game,

highlighted by Sanders' sti-
fling performance against
MichaeLIrvin.
Then, to further prove
what a difference-maker he
was, Sanders switched sides,
joining Irvin and the Cowboys
the next year and helping
them regain the throne as
Super Bowl champs.
Two seasons, two
teams, two titles. With a
$12,999,999 signing bonus
in between. Oh, one more
thing in his spare time,
he played outfield in the
major leagues and put out a
rap album featuring songs
such as "Y U NV Me" and
"Must Be the Money."
"He was the king," Parker
said. "At that time, you had
Michael Jordan out there,
but Deion was the hottest
thing in sports because he
was year-round."
